Question

Ax-b=12.5

a b and c represent nonzero constants, how do I solve the equation for x

Answer 1

The given equation is

`ax-b =12.5`

And we have to solve for x .

First we need to move b to the right side. And for that. we have to add b to both sides .

`ax = b +12.5`

Now to solve for x, we need to get rid of a, and for that, we must divie both sides by a, that is

`x = (b+12.5)/(a)`
